Shreveport Man Arrested After Attempt to Flee a Traffic Stop

In a bid to elude a routine traffic stop, Xavier Johnson, a 25-year-old resident of Shreveport, Louisiana, was apprehended after a brief vehicular chase. Johnson’s attempt to escape came to an unexpected end when he leapt out of the moving vehicle, resulting in a collision with a private fence.

Immediate Apprehension and Discovery of Illegal Substances

Johsnon’s leap from the car led to his immediate capture by the Shreveport Police Department. Upon arrest, an ensuing search revealed the possession of Schedule One narcotics in Johnson’s possession, leading to the addition of more charges towards his case.

A Slew of Charges for Xavier Johnson

Following the incident and subsequent discoveries, Johnson faces a series of charges. These include:

  • Possession with intent to distribute a Schedule One narcotic
  • Resisting an officer
  • Hit-and-run driving
  • Reckless operation of a vehicle
  • Simple property damage
  • Aggravated flight from an officer

With the string of charges, Johnson’s legal situation appears precarious as he awaits legal proceedings.

Minimal Injuries Ensue Despite the Incident
